In white-ball cricket, things are different - over there, you outsmart the batsman, and over here in Test cricket, it's all about patience and consistency.
My focus is to always enjoy and bowl good lines and lengths.
Every year, I learn something new at the IPL. It has shaped me as a cricketer.
Whenever I go to a new country, I always plan in advance. Before visiting the country, I have a look at a few videos: what works over there, what the home team does over there.
Self-belief, I think, is my biggest strength. The mental toughness comes into play whenever the chips are down.
England has the flattest wickets.
Lasith Malinga has been a great influence for me to bowl yorkers consistently.
I always try to keep calm.
I have learnt a lot from the Indian team.
I look to learn from everyone.
I try to mix my pace and try to use yorkers.
I don't take praise or criticism seriously.
I am happy to bowl wherever my captain wants me to bowl. If he tells me to bowl upfront and be aggressive with the new ball, I am happy to do that.
When I made my First-Class debut, my first spell was of 10 overs. So I was always used to bowling lot of overs in Ranji Trophy, which always helps.
You don't get anything easy. You have to work for it.
You can't wicket 5-6 wickets every session.
Confidence is not dented after one match. If it happens, then you don't deserve to play.
Learn from the mistake you made and go forward.
There is not a single cricketer who has not made a mistake.
As a bowler, my motto is not to get too excited and not to get too down after every match.
